Welcome to ReSE-Lab:
Data-Driven Strategies for Intelligent Resilient Renewable Energy Systems Under Wartime Conditions
Project Reference: 100714621
The project explores intelligent resilient renewable energy systems under conditions of war or physical attack — a topic of paramount importance for Ukraine and an increasingly pressing concern for the EU.
The information-science approach relies on methods such as digital twins, data analytics, and machine learning, forming the basis of a long-term German-Ukrainian research collaboration in „Smart Energy and Artificial Intelligence“.

What is our scope, goals, and outcomes?
Core Objectives
The objective of the project is to develop a set of solutions for each of the four phases of the resilience model: prevention of energy system failures (Prevention), support of the operation of (sub)systems (Survivability), (self)recovery (Self-healing) and integration of new knowledge into the system (Adaptation and Learning). The following results are expected to be achieved:
- A joint German-Ukrainian research center on intelligent resilient renewable
energy systems will be established. - Pilot projects, digital twins of system components, and a data integration and analysis platform will form the basis of a virtual laboratory for the design, analysis, and operation of energy systems (Resilient Smart Energy Lab, ReSE-Lab), which will serve as a long-term shared research infrastructure for the partners.
